[0001] The present invention relates to 3-substituted-1-alkylamino-2-propanol derivatives
having β-adrenergic blocking properties.
Prior Art
[0002] β-adrenergic blockers were first reported to be useful for the therapeutic treatment
of glaucoma in 1967 [Phillips et al,
Brit. J. Ophthal., 1967,
51, 222]. In 1978 timolol was approved for market use and since that time the drug has
become very popular with ophthalmologists as an effective antiglaucoma agent. Recently,
however, a vast number of serious cardiovascular, respiratory, CNS, and ocular side
effects secondary to topical ocular timolol administration has been reported [Ahmad,
The Lancet, 1979,
2, 1028; Buskirk,
Ophthalmology, 1980,
87, 447; Mishra et al,
J. Anaesth., 1983,
55, 897; and Linkewich et al,
Am. J. Hosp. Pharm., 1981,
38, 699]. Currently, timolol is no longer the sole β-blocker used to treat glaucoma.
Befanolol, carteolol and metipranolol were introduced recently and a number of other
newer β-adrenergic antagonists (e.g., L-bunolol, betaxolol, celiprolol, cetamolol,
etc.) are currently under investigation as antiglaucoma agents.
[0003] It became desirable to design an antiglaucoma drug which could be delivered to the
eye compartments in a sustained and controlled manner with minimal systemic absorption
and/or no systemic side effects.
[0004] It was previously found that after topical application to the eye, esters of adrenalone
but not adrenalone itself can be converted via a reduction-hydrolysis sequence to
deliver adrenaline (epinephrine) at the iris-ciliary body, the desired site of action
[Bodor et al,
Exp. Eye. Res., 1984,
38, 621]. Research was conducted to ascertain whether lipophilic ketones could also
be reduced in the iris-ciliary body.
[0005] It was hypothesized that ketone precursors of β-blockers which are also β-hydroxylamines
like adrenaline could then possibly be converted to the active β-blockers in the iris-ciliary
body by a reductive process. Various attempts, however, to synthesize the ketones
corresponding to a number of β-blockers (i.e., propranolol, timolol, carteolol, etc.)
failed, due to the chemical instability of these β-amino-ketone esters.
[0006] It is an object of the present invention to provide novel hydrolytically sensitive
precursors of the ketone precursors of the β-adrenergic blocking β-hydroxylamines
which are readily converted to the active β-blockers in the iris-ciliary body by combined
hydrolytic and reductive processes.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0010] Another embodiment of the invention comprises an ophthalmic pharmaceutical composition
comprising an effective interocular pressure reducing amount of one of the above described
compounds or salts, or a corresponding compound or salt wherein =Y is =O, and a non-toxic
ophthalmically acceptable carrier therefor.
[0011] Yet another embodiment of the invention comprises use of a compound or salt of formula
(I), or a corresponding compound or salt wherein =Y is =O, in the preparation of a
medicament for treating glaucoma or for lowering intraocular pressure.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0012] The present invention is predicated on the discovery that the hydrolytically sensitive
oxime-type and other labile ketone groups of the compounds of the invention would
enable the delivery to and hydrolysis and reduction of the derivative at the iris-ciliary
site of action to the active β-adrenergic blocking amino-alcohol.
[0013] The preferred compounds of the invention are those of the formula (I) above wherein
Y is =N-OR₁, =N-NH₂, =N-NR₁R₂,
Wherein: R₁ and R₂ may be the same or different and are H, alkyl having from 1
to 8 carbon atoms or aryl or aralkyl having from 6 to 15 carbon atoms;
R₃ is R₁, -COOR₁ or -CON(R₁)₂, and
Ar and R have the meanings set forth above.
[0014] It will be understood, however, that Y may be any group or substituent which is readily
hydrolyzed or enzymatically converted to a hydroxyl group at the intended site of
action, preferably at the cornea or iris-ciliary body after administration of the
parent compound to the animal undergoing treatment. In addition, in the ophthalmic
composition and uses of the invention, =Y in the compounds of formula (I) and their
salts can be =O, i.e. the ketones corresponding to formula (I) can be utilized.
[0015] It is further preferred to employ those compounds of the above formula wherein R
is a sterically hindered group such as the secondary or tertiary alkyls e.g., isopropyl,
t-butyl, etc. Suitable aralkyl groups include benzyl, 3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl, 1-phenethylethyl,
etc.; it being understood that by the term, "aralkyl", is intended any hydrocarbyl
group.
[0016] Ar may be any aromatic or heterocyclic residue of the known 3-aromatic or 3-heterocyclic
substituted 1-alkylamino-2-propanol β-blockers, e.g., those residues having the formulae:
[0017] Any pharmaceutically acceptable acid may be used to form the acid-addition salts
of the invention, e.g., HCl, H₂SO₄, H₃PO₄, maleic, succinic, methanesulfonic, citric
acid , etc.
[0019] Particularly preferred are compounds 1e, 1h, 1l, 1cc, 1k, 1p, 1t, 1v, 1bb, 1i and
1s.
[0020] The following overall reaction scheme may be employed to prepare the products of
the invention:
The conventional reaction of Ar-OH and epichlorohydrin with a small amount of morpholine
as catalyst affords a mixture of the chlorohydrin 1 and the epoxide 2; the latter
being converted to 1 by treatment with conc. HCl. Oxidation of 1 by the Pfitzner-Moffat
method [Pfitzner et al, 1965,
J.
Am.
Chem.
Soc., 87, 5661 and 5670] yields the ketone 3. Subsequent reaction of 3 with hydroxylamine
HCl gives the oxime 4, which is a mixture of the Z- and E-isomers. In the usual case
the ratio is about 1:2 , as determined by NMR [Silverstein, "Spectrometric identification
of organic compounds", 1974, 3rd ed.: G. Clayton Bassler and Terence C. Morril, New
York, Wiley].
[0021] The major product, 4 (E-), can be isolated by recrystallization from benzene. Treatment
of 4 with isopropylamine in THF gives the oxime 5 essentially as the pure Z-isomer,
which can be converted to the HCl salt 6. Alternately, the oxidation of the racemic
β-blocker
with DCC/(COCl)₂ at -20° to -78° will result in the ketone
which can be converted to 6 without isolation by adding H₂NOH HCl.
[0022] The invention is illustrated by the following non-limiting examples wherein melting
points were determined with a Fisher-Johns melting point apparatus and are uncorrected.
The 90-MHz NMR spectra were taken on a Varian EM390 NMR spectrometer. TLC was performed
on 0.25/mm Merck silica gel 60 F-254 glass plates.
EXAMPLE 1
[0023] The synthesis of the propanolone oxime (6a) is a typical example.

[0024] A mixture of 1-naphthol (20g, 0.14 mole), ephichlorohydrin (51.3g, 0.55 mole), and
morpholine (0.7 ml) was heated at 100-120°C for 7.5 h. Excess epichlorohydrin and
morpholine were removed under reduced pressure, the residue was dissolved in chloroform
and shaken with 10 ml of conc. HCl to convert (2a) to the chlorohydrin (1a). The organic
layer was separated and washed with water, then with dil. NaHCO₃ and finally with
water. It was dried over anhydrous MgSO₄ and concentrated to yield 29.8g (98%) of
the crude product. This was used in the next step (oxidation) without purification.
[0025] Purification of a sample of the crude (1a) was carried out by column chromatography

of trifluoroacetic acid (1.8 ml) in diethyl ether under ice-water cooling, and the
mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h and allowed to stand overnight. A
solution of oxalic acid (18g) in MeOH was added to the reaction mixture in small portions,
and the stirring was continued for 0.5 h. The dicyclohexylurea was filtered and washed
with ether. The filtrate was washed with a 5% NaHCO₃ solution, then with water and

[0044] The following non-limiting examples illustrate the pharmacological properties of
the compounds of the invention.
EXAMPLE 5
Effect on the Intraocular Pressure (IOP) of Rabbits:
[0045] Adult male New Zealand albino rabbits weighing 2.5 - 3.5 kg were used. The animals
were kept in individual cages with free access to food and water. Intraocular pressure
was measured using a Digilab model 30R pneumatonometer. The pneumatonometer readings
were checked at least twice a day using the Digilab calibration verifier. All measurements
were obtained from unrestrained, unanesthetized rabbits. One drop of 0.5% propacaine
(Ophthetic-Allergan Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) diluted 1:2 with saline was instilled in
each eye immediately prior to IOP measurement. Drugs were administered as 1 or 2.5%
solution in buffer pH 7.4 or in saline in both eyes of a group of at least four rabbits.
Another group of at least three rabbits served as control and was administered the
carrier only. IOP was recorded after 30 and 60 minutes and then after 2, 3, 4, 6 and
8 hours following the drug or carrier administration. Values are given as means ±
standard error (S.E.) of the mean. The significance of the change was determined using
the student's t-test.
[0046] The animals were also observed for local action of the drugs on the eyes, e.g., irritation,
congestion, redness, lacrimation, etc.
[0048] These results reveal that the ketoxime analogs of both propranolol and timolol display
a certain degree of ocular hypotensive activity. Propranolone ketoxime (6a) has shown
the highest activity at both tested concentration levels, 1 and 2.5%. This activity
was much more pronounced and prolonged than that of propranolol itself administered
at the same dose levels (Tables 1 and 2). In addition, the ketoxime (6a) was completely
devoid of the ocular irritation which always accompanied propranolol administration
at both dose levels. This irritant activity might have contributed to the reduced
action of propranolol on the IOP at the 1% dose level and, also, might have completely
masked its ocular hypotensive activity at the 2.5% dose level. Timolone ketoxime (6b)
has also shown a significant ocular hypotensive activity which was faster in its onset
and shorter in its duration than timolol (1b) itself (Table 3). On the other hand,
the other ketoxime precursors, the ones for the N-isopropyl analog (6d) of (6b) and
(6c) for carteolol, showed low activity at the dose levels used but showed some β-antagonist
activity.
EXAMPLE 6
Effect on resting heart rate and on isoprenaline-induced tachycardia in rats:
[0049] Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 150-250 g were used. Each animal was anesthetized
with sodium pentobarbital (50 mg/kg) and the jugular vein was cannulated with PE50
tubing. This cannula was subcutaneously threaded around the neck and exteriorized
dorsally. The cannula was filled with heparin solution (1000/µl) and sealed with a
solid 22-gauge stylet. Animals were housed in individual stainless steel cages and
at least 24 hours were allowed for recovery from the surgery. Food and water were
provided
ad libitum. On the day of the experiment, the heart rate of each rat was monitored with a plethsmograph
and the data recorded on a Physioscribe II recorder. One hour was allowed as an equilibration
period before any drugs were administered. Drugs were dissolved in normal saline as
0.3% solution and were administered intravenously at a dose of 6 mg/kg. The resting
heart rate was then recorded after 1, 3, 5, 10 and 15 minutes following i.v. injection.
Isoprenaline (Isoproterenol bitartarate), was then administered subcutaneously at
a dose of 50 µg/kg and the heart rate was recorded for 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45 and
60 minutes after administration. A control group of seven animals was intravenously
administered saline solution and was treated exactly in the same manner as the drug-treated
groups.
[0050] The significance of the difference between the effect of saline solution and the
drugs under investigation on the resting heart rate and on isoprenaline tachycardia
was analyzed using the student's "t" test. Values are given as mean ± S.E. of the
mean. The results are depicted in Figure 1 which depicts the mean change in heart
rate over time for (□) propranolol HCl (1a), (▲) timolol maleate (1b), (·) carteolol
HCl (1c), (○) propranolone ketoxime HC1 (6a), (∇) timolone ketoxime oxalate (6b),
(△) N-isopropyl timolone ketoxime HCl (6d), (■) carteolone oxime HCl (6c) and (- -
-) saline solution.
[0051] In another set of experiments the effect of the oral administration of propranolol
Hcl (1a) and propranolone oxime HC1 (6a) in doses of 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg on the resting
heart rate and isoprenalinetachycardia was evaluated in rats. Drugs were administered
to groups of 5 rats using a stomach tube and the heart rate was recorded for 1 hour.
Then isoprenaline (50 µg/kg, s.c.) was administered and the heart rate was recorded
after 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45 and 60 minutes following administration. A control
group of 5 rats was treated exactly in the same manner after the oral administration
of the appropriate volume of saline solution.
[0052] The resting heart rate portions of these studies revealed that most of the tested
ketoximes exhibit a negative chronotropic action in rats. Again, the ketoximes of
propranol (6a) and timolol (6b) have shown the highest activity in this test, whereas
carteolone ketoxime (6c) and the oxime (6d) were less active. It should be also noted
that in this test carteolol (1c) itself has shown the lowest activity on the heart
rate of rats.
[0053] When the potential β-adrenergic antagonist activity of the ketoxime precursors of
propranolol, timolol and carteolol was assessed against isoprenaline-tachycardia using
the parent compounds as obvious reference drugs as described above, results were in
agreement with the findings of the studies on the effect on the IOP and resting heart
rate. Thus, the ketoxime precursors of propranolol (6a) and timolol (6b) were the
most effective whereas (6c) and (6d) were the least active. See Figure 1.
[0054] These results indicate that at least two of the investigated ketoxime precursors
(6a and 6b) have an antiglaucoma activity which is probably linked to their β-adrenergic
antagonistic properties. Yet, whether these properties are due to an inherent intrinsic
activity of the ketoximes themselves or are the result of their active biological
conversion to their parent drugs needed to be verified. For this reason the
in vivo disposition of the different ketoximes and their parent β-blockers in the different
ocular tissues was studied in rabbits.
EXAMPLE 7
In vivo distribution - metabolism studies:
A. In ocular tissues of rabbits:
[0055] Adult male New Zealand albino rabbits weighing 2.5-3.5 kg were used. Standard doses
of 100 µl of 1% solution of the drugs in saline solution were administered topically
to both eyes of each rabbit. After appropriate time intervals (30, 60 and 120 minutes),
the animals were sacrificed. Aqueous humor was obtained by making a single puncture
at the limbus using a 25 g x 5/8" needle attached to 1 c.c. syringe. Then the cornea
and the iris-ciliary body were isolated. The tissues were pooled and homogenized using
a Tekmar SDT tissuemizer in ice cold perchloric acid (0.05 M) which contained 0.05%
sodium metabisulfite as antioxidant. Samples were then rehomogenized in CH₃OH to prepare
10% homogenates, transferred to micro-filters and centrifuged for 20 minutes at 10000
r/minute to precipitate proteins. Aqueous humor was analyzed as such without any further
dilution. Aliquots of 5-20 µl of the 10% tissue homogenate samples were analyzed by
HPLC. Quantitation was done by using a calibration curve obtained by the addition
of known amounts of the compound to aqueous humor, iris-ciliary body or cornea obtained
from a control rabbit after topical administration of saline solution.
B. In rat's blood:
[0056] A group of seven adult male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 150-250 g was used. Animals
were intrajugularly injected with propranolone oxime (6a) at a dose of 6 mg/kg. After
1, 3, 5, 20, 40 and 60 minutes, one ml of blood was withdrawn from the jugular vein
and dropped immediately into a tared tube containing 1 ml of ice-cold acetonitrile.
The tubes were vigorously shaken, centrifuged, decanted and analyzed for propranolol
(1a) and propranolone oxime (5a) by HPLC. Quantitation was done by using a calibration
curve obtained by addition of known amounts of propranolol oxime HCl (6a) to blood
obtained from a control rat pretreated with saline solution.
[0057] The results of the ocular tissue tests are set forth in Tables 4 and 5.

[0058] The results of the ocular tissue studies show that propranolol (1a) could be detected
in measurable concentrations in the different eye compartments for the first two hours
following the topical administration of its ketoxime precursor (6a) at its effective
ocular hypotensive dose level (1%) (Table 4). On the other hand, propranolol could
not be detected in any of the tested eye tissues two hours after its ocular application
(Table 5), and it had completely disappeared from the iris-ciliary body which is supposed
to be the site of its ocular hypotensive action, one hour after administration. These
results might explain the shorter duration of propranolol action on the IOP relative
to that of its ketoxime precursor. In addition, these results might also suggest that
the ocular hypotensive activity of the oxime is most probably due to its active conversion
to propranolol
in situ in the ocular tissues of rabbits. This is also supported by the finding that following
the ophthalmic administration of the other ketoxime precursors (6b and 6c) of timolol
and carteolol, respectively, at the low dose level used, the parent β-adrenergic antagonists
in any of the eye compartments could not be found. This would suggest that either
the ketone formed or the reduced form, the active β-blocker, is disposed of so fast
that it cannot be detected, or that the ketones are not such good substrates for the
reductase enzyme as the propanolone ketoxime.
[0059] The studies in ocular tissue and blood revealed that the metabolic pathway of the
oxime in the blood is quite different from that in ocular tissues. Thus, propranolol
was not detected in rat's blood following the i.v. administration of the oxime and,
instead, another more polar compound was detected. However, 5 minutes after injection
even this compound had totally disappeared. The oxime itself appeared to have a very
fast metabolism in blood (Fig. 2). The t1
/2 in blood was equivalent to 7.64 ± 0.55 minutes and one hour after i.v. administration
the oxime had completely disappeared from the blood.
[0060] While these results would suggest that the propranolol formed
in situ in the iris-ciliary body is responsible for the IOP reduction observed, the ketoxime
itself might have intrinsic activity.
[0061] Based on the previous observation of the necessity to convert adrenalone to lipophilic
esters to be reduced, one could expect that the lipophilic propranolone is easily
reduced, while the ketones derived from timolol and carteolol, being less lipophilic
(heterocyclic substitution of naphthalene), are not reduced that extensively. The
N-isopropyl analog (6d) of timolol was synthesized and tested in order to assess the
importance of the N-alkyl function. Propranolol contains an i-propyl group, like 6d,
but 6d was still found inactive. The difference in the behavior of the 6a vs. 6b-d
thus might be due to the difference in the Ar-group which appears to determine the
substrate properties necessary to bind to the reductase enzyme. This hypothesis is
supported by the relative HPLC retention times of the free bases 5a-5d which were
12.86, 7.22, 3.10, 6.10 for 5a, 5b, 5c and 5d, respectively, indicating that 5a is
by far the most lipophilic.
[0062] The following example illustrates the HPLC analytical method used to obtain these
results.
EXAMPLE 8
ANALYTICAL METHOD
[0063] A high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for the assay of
the β-blockers and their ketoxime analogs in biological fluids. The chromatographic
analysis was performed on a system consisting of Beckman Model 112 solvent delivery
system, Model 340 Injector, and Waters Model 481 variable wave length LC spectrophotometer.
An ASI reverse phase chrompack C₁₈ column, operated at ambient temperature, was used
for all separations. The mobile phase used for separation of propranolol (1a) and
propranolone oxime (5a) consisted of water, 1-heptane sulfonic acid, 0.1M acetic acid,
0.1M triethanolamine and methanol (90, 1g, 100, 799). With a flow rate of 1.5 ml/minute,
the two compounds showed retention times of 2.44 and 3.21 minutes for propranolone
oxime and propranolol, respectively. The mobile phase used for separation of carteolol
(1c), carteolone oxime (5c), timolol (1b), timolone oxime (5b) and timolone ispropyl
oxime (5d) consisted of water, 1-heptane sulfonic acid, 0.1M acetic acid, tetrahydrofuran,
0.1M triethanolamine and methanol (430, 2, 40, 30, 100 and 398). With a flow rate
of 1.5 ml/minute, the retention times for these compounds were 3.10, 3.54, 6.10, 7.22
and 9.15 minutes for carteolone oxime (5c), carteolol (1c), timolone isopropyl oxime
(5d), timolone oxime (5b) and timolol (1b), respectively.
[0064] The results are depicted in Figure 2 which is a plot of blood levels (µg/ml) vs.
time of 5a after administration of 6a at a dose level of 6 mg/kg to rats.
[0065] It is believed that the compounds of the invention are converted to their parent
β-blockers according to the following scheme A which shows the conversion of 5a to
1a. Similar conversions would follow scheme B.
[0066] The hydrolytically sensitive precursors of the present invention comprise effective
chemical delivery systems (CDS) for the β-blockers and intraocular pressure reducing
agents.
The compounds of the invention may be administered to animals in need thereof by
instilling solutions thereof into the eye or via oral tablets, capsules, etc., or
any other convenient route of administration at dosages of from about 0.001 to about
20 mg/kg.
[0067] The compounds may be formulated with any conventional pharmaceutically acceptable
carrier, such as those utilized for the parent amino-alcohol β-blockers.
